Hi,
you do need permission from the station owners . All the propertires in this area are leasehold properties but you require the same permission as for any privately owned land.
Personally I doubt you will get it and you would need to contact each individual land holder.
Also as it is in the unincorporated area of the state - ie no local council, names and addresses won't be easy either.

Hi Simple
Been up that track a few times in the last couple of years.
No problems at all, you don't need to drop into every property for permission.
In fact when I first did it a number of years ago, one owner requested I don't bother calling in a disrupting daily chores, UNLESS you wish to
camp.
Make sure you have a fit passenger - there are lots of gates.
Theldarpa was vacant last november however you can still
camp overnite for a donation. However if your going to Camerons Corner you will turn north before then. And you will miss a couple of very interesting towns ie
Milparinka & Tibboburra - these are
well worth visiting. Enjoy your trip up the back track
Cheers
Mike

Mike is so very right.
You will not need permission, but you will have lots of gates to open. The country side is so pretty and you will travel slower on that road giving you more time to take it in.
He is also right about
Milparinka and Tib. They are both worth visiting as are the Mt Brown goldfields, so think about your trip and try to build them into it.
When you get to CC spend some time in the
shop and ask how to get a $5 note stuck to the ceiling, its a lot of fun.
Have a good trip.

milparinka last year but may still have to go that way.
glad to hear we can go that way. there's 2 utes and 2-3 bikes going so should be a good trip.

Normally I would say that would be simple. (As Bonz can tell you!!) Unfortunately you are running a bit late to catch me, I'm back in the big smoke.
Sorry about the simple thing, can't help going for the cheap pun.
You will be welcome at 238 anyway.
You will have a great trip, wish I could come.
